I’m planning to install a new one. Hoping the gages are okay. Possible they may have seen full voltage when Ivr fails. When your failed did it effect the gages? I agree definely tight. Had some skinned wrists after removing it.
When the IVR failed in my car it burned up both gauges. I originally pulled the cluster out to replace all that and then ended up with a faulty "new" IVR, but I had already buttoned the dash back up. So I squeezed my hand under from the bottom. The headlamp was a big help.
